MD, Deltra Group

“2022 has been a whirlwind and we are only half way through! The momentum we carried into January has continued and we’re seeing a change in the way our clients have decided to hire. Our clients have shown a genuine commitment to get the right people by creating permanent headcount, or taking time to understand IR35 and finding the best interims available. This has allowed us to truly consult with our clients before finding a solution to their talent shortage. For our business, and me personally, 2022 has been a breath of fresh air. We’ve adapted to incorporate the best of what we learnt during lockdown and enhanced the way we work.”

Sales director, FPR Group

“2022 has been an excellent year so far for FPR Group and we are benefiting from a significant increase in permanent placements, as well as demand for our temporary worker and contract services. During the lockdowns we purposely spent time developing our consultants and leaders through peer-to-peer learning and building goodwill equity with our clients; this investment of time has enabled us to achieve the marginal gains the market demands to find candidates, as well as galvanising our clients to act faster to secure the talent they need.”

CEO, Macildowie

“2022 has been a year of ‘firsts’. It’s the first time anyone has convinced their spouse to join the company, which says a lot about the brilliant culture we have built here. It’s the first time we have hired an MD of Temp & Interim. The results delivered by Mat Lane and the team have been record-breaking. It’s the first time we have sold an RPO [recruitment process outsourcing] solution by the client finding us through Google – due to our investment in all things digital. Most importantly, 5 May 2022 was the first time we were all physically in the same building since December 2019. It is now great to see our people return to the office more frequently because they want to be there.”
